This review is from: FIVE SHORT STORIES ALL KIDS SHOULD KNOW (Kindle Edition)

The short stories in here were all very good. I might have left out Bartleby, the Scrivner from this collection. It's a fine story, but I definitely think it wouldn't have enough action for most kids. But the other stories,like The Masque of the Red Death, The Open Boat, and To Build a Fire, had plenty enough action to keep a kid's attention. All of them are great for building vocabulary.
